It's time to close the book on Beauty and the Beast and dive into The Little Mermaid by Hans Christian Andersen! We first discuss our main takeaways from Beauty and the Beast and how we would like to retell it as writers ourselves. Then we break down the original story of The Little Mermaid, including discussion of birthday buddies, the tale's true ending, the time Drew played the Prince, Cassie's pattern of twisting her ankle on Wednesdays, and the beginnings of what is sure to be a month-long debate about the nature of the Sea Witch. Plus find out which retellings of The Little Mermaid we'll be looking at this month!
